Long Term investing: risk appetite can multiply wealth 1000 times in 30 years.

Stock markets reward persistence. Good risk appetite can multiply wealth 1000 times in 30 years. 
Story of Ramdeo Agarwal of Motilal Oswal is a sample for huge rewards in long term investing. Agrawal started his investment journey with Rs 1 crore in 1990. At the time of the Harshad Mehta-led market rally in 1992, the value of his investment increased to Rs 30 crore.

However, once the bubble burst, the value of investment reduced to Rs 10 crore from Rs 30 crore in correction after the 1992 market rally. The value of his investments increased 10 times from Rs 10 crore to Rs 100 crore in the Y2K market rally of 2000.

The correction after the Y2K rally saw 70 per cent erosion in the value of his investment and it plummets to Rs 30 crore from Rs 100 crore.

However, within seven years, the value of his investment soared by as much as 833 per cent – from Rs 30 crore to Rs 550 crore during the 2007 market rally.

The market meltdown after the 2007 rally resulted in a steep fall in the value of Agrawal's investments as Rs 550 crore reduced to Rs 250 crore in 2008.

His patience paid a rich dividend as the value of Agrawal's investments increased from Rs 250 crore to Rs 1,850 crore by February 2020. As the markets crashed briefly during the onset of Covid-19 pandemic, the value of investments reduced from Rs 1,850 crore to Rs 1,150 crore in 2020.

With the ease of Covid concerns, the value of Agrawal's investments has now increased to over Rs 2,200 crore in the current market rally of 2020-2021.

How to use home loans most effectively for tax benefits

1) Deduction on interest: If you are paying EMIs for a home loan you took to buy a house, the interest component in the EMI can be claimed as deduction. You must be both an owner and a co-borrower (in the loan) to claim tax benefits. This deduction can be claimed starting the year in which the construction of the house is completed. Suppose the construction of your house was completed on August 30, 2014, you can claim deduction for interest for the entire 12 months in financial year 2014-15. So every year a maximum of Rs. 2 lakh can be claimed for a house that you use for your own residence. If your house is rented, the entire interest for the year can be claimed as deduction. The interest payments for the year shall result in a loss under the head 'income from house property'. This loss can be adjusted against in the same year against other heads of income in your income tax return including salary. Therefore, it reduces your total taxable income and the tax you pay thereon. A...

Intellectual battle against ISIS as important as Military: Sheikh Makhtoum of Dubai

The global financial crisis taught the world how profoundly interdependent our economies have become. In today's crisis of extremism, we must recognize that we are just as interdependent for our security, as is clear in the current struggle to defeat ISIS. Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, VP and prime minister of the UAE, ruler of Dubai If we are to prevent ISIS from teaching us this lesson the hard way, we must acknowledge that we cannot extinguish the fires of fanaticism by force alone. The world must unite behind a holistic drive to discredit the ideology that gives extremists their power, and to restore hope and dignity to those whom they would recruit. ISIS certainly can – and will – be defeated militarily by the international coalition that is now assembling and which the UAE is actively supporting. But military containment is only a partial solution. Lasting peace requires three other ingredients: winning the battle of ideas; upgrading weak governance; and ...
